Solar panel production figures

Sun is TRYING to break through today, horrific morning but hopefully get something this afternoon whilst the clouds are still out.

Also for those still on Octopus Flux do you have this part for the tariff or is flux excluded for calculation fixes?

Ha it's flying in today we just past yesterdays huge 3Kwh and still going at 3.20Kwh and its only one o'clock all the Battery's are flat down hear so I need 25Kwh just to get them back to full. The better half is on form with her 3 load of washing the tumble dryer spinning it guts out the cooker's on she is baking as well.
And what's coming in is not covering the house/workshop loads We have used from grid 7.60Kwh today so far looking like time to sort out overnight charging

Flux is not fixed like that. It changes with each price cap change.
 
currently producing 90watts lol

That's bad, but you're doing better than me today, this picture gives a better idea of the French pea soup covering the southern end of the UK, clouds and rain coming from France all day and moving to the west country.


We currently at 6.8, better than yesterday, but I stopped discharge at 50% today, currently at 49%, as by 2am this morning the battery was at 11%, and Friday night tens to use more power - something to do with my cinema room probably :D

Even in the middle of summer I charge the batteries overnight, with flux it barely costs anything to do that, as day export is about the same price as cheap import.
Yep I can see that I'm with British Gas for the Electric will have to sort a tariff but want to stick with them I know the do a overnight EV charge Tarff but no real house Battery charge Tarff but they do have a economy 7 Tarff and I think that's one more Meter that they have to add I think
 
Well not as bad as yesterday but still dire a low 5.90Kwh made on the house today The battery is flat at 5% on the house and workshop and we took 10.10Kwh from the grid so far today to keep running
The Workshop made a hole 1KWH and the battery is flat out there as well
The only good news is British gas have a super saver weekend and the power is half price from 9 till 5 Saturday and Sunday so I will fill the Battery's up at 11p
a Kwh both days don't know how that works with any going out at 15p a Kwh but hay ho It will take 25Kwh to fill up the house and workshop battery's
And must bell them about a over night Tarff to do the charging
